Nope. The USCG gets your picture from the TWIC.

Do I need to renew my TWIC with my USCG License?

Most people do not need to have a valid TWIC once they have a USCG license so you don't need to renew it to renew your license. You will just end up with your old picture on your renewed USCG license!

We hope this made your life a little easier and if you have other questions the MM-SEAS team is always here to help!

MM-SEAS is free to use on your own and if you need some more personalized help you can upgrade to MM-SEAS Pro inside of the site.

No matter what, when you are ready to submit your application, you can choose to have the MM-SEAS staff create a perfect application, handle the USCG application fees and work with the USCG on your behalf to resolve any issues for a flat fee of $349 or you can choose to submit on your own.
